Doorbell that is finally more than enough! (And is finally here!)

Today Reolink Video doorbell WiFi finally came after long months of waiting.

I forgot to take unpacking photos, as I wanted badly to mount it to test it as soon as possible, but it came via mail with pretty well packed.

Since my old doorbell was powered directly from the 230V mains, I had to slightly rework the installation and plug in the power supply using a power outlet and wago cubes to connect about both sides.

After installation it looks like this:
undefined

From the app perspective:

Had to use privacy mask on neighbour door to be compliant with local regulations.

Today I start testing, we'll see how it performs.
I'll get back to you in a few days with impressions from the tests

After intensive testing for several months of this doorbell, I can say that it is one of the best solutions on the market.

During the tests an unknown person wanted to steal the bell, but fortunately the housing withstood this attempt and I managed to run to the door.

The bell in the application on Windows as well as Android works properly, displays people correctly, although it does not always transmit the notification that someone has called the door immediately. Sometimes it has a 1-2 minute delay.

When the app was working properly, the communication worked just fine. Several times I spoke to the courier through the bell asking him to wait at the door / leave the package at the door, and each time the communication was clear and seamless.

The quality of the camera itself makes it possible to identify the person without problems, and the illuminated bell makes it easy to find him in a dark hallway.

It would be nice to have another camera in the base of the bell to monitor if there are things on the doormat / if no one has stolen the doormat - a similar solution to the bell from Ubiquiti.
